The Selfish God of Death?

Harry opened his mouth as if to speak, but then closed it again.

Behind Harry, Fawkes the Phoenix let out a soft, melodious chirp.

It's back!

Harry suddenly noticed that Dumbledore's bright blue eyes were a little moist, and he was very embarrassed, so he quickly looked down at his knees.

But then he felt it was too obvious, so he quickly turned to look at Fawkes on the gilded perch behind him. "I haven't seen you before!"

"Look, this is my wand, made from your tail feather!"

However, Harry forgot to use his ability to lie to cover up the unnaturalness in his words.

"Alright, Fawkes doesn't like hearing about tail feathers," Dumbledore said calmly.

Upon hearing this, Harry took a closer look at the beautiful bird.

Fawkes's narrow, phoenix-shaped eyes indeed revealed a displeased expression.

A question arose in Harry's mind. Dumbledore, however, seemed to hear Harry's inner voice. "Harry, do you know the origin of the name 'Order of the Order of the Phoenix'?"

Harry's head was filled with questions. "Doesn't it mean that the Order of the Phoenix, like Phoenix, can constantly rise from the ashes and defeat all dark forces in the face of evil?"

"No, the content in the Daily Prophet has been edited." Harry noticed that Dumbledore had shifted his gaze again, looking somewhat awkward. "Actually, the reason the Order of the Order of the Phoenix is called that is because its initial operating funds came from Fawkes —Order of the Phoenix by selling its tail feathers."

Oh, right, Harry.

What is your choice?

What about immortality?

If you want to die naturally.

I will try my best to find a way to sever the connection between you and Riddle after Voldemort dies.

As for Tom, I will leave that responsibility to my children.

It's really strange, but over the years I've had this inexplicable feeling that Dumbledore's bloodline shouldn't be passed down; it's a forbidden bloodline.

But it wasn't until he got pregnant that I realized there was nothing that was taboo.

"Existence is its own justification."

I don't know right now.

In my understanding, it refers to people or wizards.

No one wants to die.

The things you said to me in front of the Mirror of Erised and in the last room of the Third Floor Corridor when I was in first grade.

Actually, I don't agree with any of them.

I think being alive is the most important thing.

If one can live a long life without harming others.

Why can't that be?

However, the Afterlife seems to really exist.

At least that's what the ghosts say.

Death may be a permanent reunion.

Hmm. I'll leave this decision to me a hundred years from now.

"Let me, back then, make the choice," Harry said with a smile.

However, neither he nor Dumbledore noticed that at this moment, the Elder Wand in Dumbledore's arms was emitting a faint light that was invisible to ordinary people, and a magnificent and great will was descending.

After hearing Harry's words, it disappeared silently, just as it had come.

At Smith Castle, Ryan, who was lying on the sofa, opened his eyes.

"Young master, are you alright?" The House-elf Jack appeared immediately and knelt down.

Because he sensed a distinct anger emanating from his master.

Gone was his usual inscrutable smile, and his silvery-white, clear eyes no longer held the unwavering composure that once filled him like a towering mountain.

Every inch of his handsome face was filled with icy anger.

His master radiated a power, as if he were burning with heat.

"It's okay, I'm not the one who's angry."

If it were really me, the entire castle would have been reduced to dust long ago, except for you all.

Give me a bowl of noodles.

"Fried sauce, little broth, slightly spicy, thin noodles, firm texture," Ryan said casually.

Jack quickly disappeared from the spot.

Ryan wasn't asleep when he closed his eyes.

Instead, he was 'watching' everything that was happening in the Hogwarts Headmaster's office.

But when faced with the will of Bleach and Harry Potter's outrageous words, he showed no reaction.

The anger that had been building up within Ryan, stemming from all previous Smith, was ignited.

Why should they be targeted by Bleach and forced to ascend to the Afterlife after they become powerful?

So much so that they have always followed the path of secrecy.

But when it comes to his own direct descendants, he doesn't mind being offended at all.

As a god, a great wizard who rules the Afterlife, he is so selfish.

However, Ryan himself was only a little annoyed.

He knew Harry was just a different person.

Under Ryan's design.

Harry lost the chance to personally understand Voldemort's curse of killing his own blood relatives and end Peverell's curse.

Because Bleach foresaw that he couldn't see Ryan in his current state, he believed that only Voldemort could kill Riddle.

That is, Voldemort himself.

Therefore, Harry lost his role the Chosen One in the Prophecy.

In Bleach's eyes, Harry is now merely a descendant who has lost his right to the inheritance, so he will naturally treat him leniently.

Before Ryan designed Harry, in his first year, Harry was the Chosen One, the heir to Bleach.

He simply said he wanted to resurrect his family.

Then came the arrival of Bleach's will and His reprimanding admonition.

Before the coming of the Chosen One's Prophecy.

Except for His direct descendants, except for Bleach.

The other two lines (Longbottom and Smith both descended from the eldest Antioch Peverell, and are considered one line) also have inheritance rights from their ancestors.

When they become powerful enough to reach the level of their ancestors—the dividing line between Demigod Wizard and divine wizards—they will be drawn together by their bloodline and embark on a new round of trials for divine positions.

Ignotus Peverell, who believed himself to be right and capable of bringing blessings to all living beings, would naturally not allow Longbottom, Smith, and Gaunt to have the opportunity to grow to that level.

Often, once they reach the level of Demigod Wizard, they are summoned to the Afterlife.

However, in Ryan's view, this also proves that Bleach is indeed losing its humanity.

Because if He still has humanity, or if His humanity prevails.

Even if the other two lineages reach the boundary between gods and non-gods.

As the examiner, the current Bleach Reaper can set questions according to his own will.

Or, to put it another way, it could be a direct rejection of the examination for a divine position.

But it was precisely this divine aspect that prevailed.

This ensures that He can only choose the fair and just examination for divine status.

The Chosen One's Prophecy may be the last backdoor He gives to His descendants.

After all, according to this Prophecy, the other two factions were actually eliminated from the start.

Longbottom was not Voldemort's first choice to mark.

Smith's defenses were so strong that Voldemort couldn't break in, let alone mark anything.

As for Gaunt, Voldemort himself was the only direct descendant of Gaunt.

Only the Potter family, who, despite his efforts, could not break through the Fidelius Charm, happened to choose one of his subordinates as their guarantor.

Therefore, Harry being marked was actually a predetermined event.

Unless, by chance, the Longbottoms had taken Neville to visit Harry's house at that time.

When Voldemort finally killed someone, the curse was directed at Neville.
